simple but effective, cheers mate! I was having an issue with an official Sony Battery. no idea why.

[@PlanetaDeltaFortnite]

Thank your very much, you were right! That fixed my problems, that seems to be any missing pin not pushing enough.

[@davidcatalano9738]

Was hopeful, but this didn't work for me. What's odd is that my dummy battery used to work and now stopped. Thanks for posting the video Mike!

Sorry to hear that!

Hello did you fix your camera i have same issuse? Any tip please?

[@J.G.arspoetica]

Thank You Sir! I It works flawlessly. With The third party power adapter (chinese), as well as with third party batteries! You did save me time and money. I would like to donate in order to show my appreciation and to stay clear with the force of life and all good. Please tell me how to work it out.

Seems like an obvious solution and I really am glad I found your video, but....not working for me...still getting the message

Thanks my friend.

Thanks! Its helps me

Hello, small tip, if you use a vertical grip then there is sometimes a kind of small recess for the hatch of the battery compartment that needs to be unmounted. My Meike grip stated incompatible battery as well wih the sony alpha 550, after I actually placed the hatch into the recess it suddenly worked normally. Might be some mechanism built in...

[@samymohamad5303]

i tried and sometimes it worked, sometimes it doesnt. still I cant figure out, why my second battery wont be able to show on the display.

[@Crystal_Video_Studio]

I have the same problem on my alpha 550 too, please can I have a link to a video where those steps are carried out, 😢😢please

[@SambridhTheZenith]

Thanks Boss.

If you did please share how

[@royayersrules]

Shouldn't need to do anything like that. I came here because my A9 has started giving me this warning after running OK. I just switched all my gear from 35 years of Nikon to Sony. Sony are lightweight in comparison!

[@1040964CHIP]

I returned my dummy battery because it kept say incompatible… maybe this was my issue all along! I’ll order a new one and let you know

[@MikeDoesStuff1]

There is a good chance it could work! It solved it for me

[@1040964CHIP]

@@MikeDoesStuff1 I ordered this exact one and it actually solve my problem. I do not have to do anything extra

Hello there , may I ask what kind of dummy battery should I buy for the Sony a5100 , am I even gonna find one? I don't want it from amazon or so , but would be helpful if u told me what the type of the a5100 dummy's battery name is so I can ask about it in my area , thanks.

[@MikeDoesStuff1]

Hey Hunter, I believe you would want a NP-FW50 dummy battery. If you didn't want to use amazon B&H photo has some some options. I'm not sure if you have a store in your area. Thanks, Mike

[@thr3shel3arab5]

@@MikeDoesStuff1 Thank you Mike ! , much love brother ❤

[@bethdevera9911]

doesn't work for my a6500

[@spiderbite7849]

My A7SIII dummy battery doesn’t say incompatible, it says ‘cannot guarantee operation with this battery’. Have you seen this message?

[@MikeDoesStuff1]

I have not seen that one before. It may be a faulty battery. I've read you can provide constant power to an A7SIII through the USB C port. Also may be worth trying another battery.

[@surendraSingh-td5ue]

Hey my camera get wet in rain water and now it's showing incompatible battary , use correct modal , can anyone help ?

[@amilsongarcia4775]

i have the same issue, did you fix it?

[@Crystal_Video_Studio]

Please share if you did fix it

[@noone-yn6in]

good video Mike, but clean up the frame a bit. too much empty space above you head, that arm is right in the path and get that mic out of your face. the mic in the line of sight is really not working. keep up with the good videos

[@MikeDoesStuff1]

Thanks for the tips! I’ll keep that in mind next time

It didn't work for me on my sony a6500
